PS Plus Player Count is Up

For August 2024, PlayStation Plus' engagement rose by 8.43%, and part of that has to do with Lego Star Wars: the Skywalker Saga.

lol and some people crap on Lego games. I guess they have a bigger following then I thought

OtterX248d ago

They're one of the top games for parents to play with their kids. By myself, I get a bit bored of their sameness, but with my kids, we have an absolute blast! There aren't many other games for us to play 3 player local on one screen.

We don’t have the information on why it went up. 8.3 isn’t a massive jump. Was the Lego game part of it maybe. Was it a multiplayer game people wanted to play maybe. Was it new subscribers ?another game ? A combination of all probably I doubt it was just Lego Star Wars

Still sucks wouldn't say only comes off as US defaultism

MaximusPrime_15d ago

Strange why people disagree with me. Probably they are illiterate or just fanboys who hates PS.

Anyway, the articles clearly said it and I just saved you a click. Thanks Moegooner for the list of countries

Mmmkay15d ago

Or maybe there is a difference between south America and Latin America..

With these reckless trade wars going on, expect videogames to keep getting more expensive.

babadivad15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

Switch prices were locked in before the Tarrifs. They just conveniently used the tarrifs as an excuse to calm outrage.

PSN is a digital service and isn't subjected to any kind of tarrifs.

They have been trying to find a way to increase the price for years.

Don't let them trick you into blaming tarrifs for corporate greed.

crazyCoconuts15d ago

When I look at Brazil, the increased price for PS Essential new users annually is equivalent to $61 USD, monthly is $7.50 USD. In the US it's more expensive. Just an observation that maybe they've been getting a better deal all along.

"Just an observation that maybe they've been getting a better deal all"

No, not every country has the same average salary as the United States. When releasing games and consoles, pricing should be based on the local economy and wages, which are often very different from those in the U.S

"When releasing games and consoles, pricing should be based on the local economy and wages"
So companies should sell consoles at a large loss in impoverished countries?

Sony is run by imbeciles unfortunately

In your own words.

*All are welcome to Switch 2. Microsoft Games Studios is interested in long term profits and market value not petty fanboy thoughts.*

Now, I'll change some of it.

Show us on the doll where sony touched you

anast15d ago

They have to keep up with Nintendo's prices.

Michiel198915d ago

yes they decided on this in a week, it can't be that they were planning it anyway, it couldn't have been. Not from your favourite company.

anast15d ago

It's strange. It's like you read the words, but you don't have the ability to understand them.

ARESWARLORD15d ago

I already find it to be a terrible value. Go ahead and up the price and 100% lose me.

andy8514d ago (Edited 14d ago )

Not saying a price increase is good but I'm paying £8 a month for access to 1000 games. That's absolutely not terrible value

ARESWARLORD12d ago

How many of those games are you actually playing

I would add Jeanne D'Arc. I had it back in the PSP days, but I finally played all the way through it and Platinumed it this time. Great game, addictive battles.

Knushwood Butt126d ago

Excellent game.
Beat it on PSP.
Got close to the end on PS5 but other stuff got my attention.

Plague Tale Requiem
Ugh, platinumed the flrst game but had issues with it.
The second game had similar issues. I stopped playing it fairly early in and ended up deleting it.
